Kubernetes Made Easy: Learn Kubernetes From Scratch from Udemy

What's inside

Learning objectives

First and foremost, you will learn about kubernetes from scratch. no previous experience required. but added advantage to folks who has basic knowledge of containers and linux. if not, i have your back.
Next, we will understand why we need a good container orchestration engine and see why kubernetes is your go-to option
Then, we will build and administer production grade kubernetes clusters on-the-go, on-cloud and as well as locally on your laptop
After that, you will get in depth understanding of what are pods, how do they connect and communicate and finally will show you how to write pod manifest file and deploy it on kubernetes
Next, i will show you how to configure and manage pod configuration using configmaps and secrets

Then, we will go through managing application protection and high-availability using replicaset, replicationcontroller, and daemonset,
After that, we will scale up and scale down application instances depending on traffic and also, i will show you how to upgrade and rollback applications versioins on kubernetes using deployments
Next, using various services, i will show you how to connect and configure communication between application internally inside kubernetes cluster and expose applications on to internet
Then, we will explore, understand and configure various storage solutions from temporary to persistent storage.
Finally, i will show you how to troubleshoot while setting up kubernetes cluster, deploying and managing applications.
